1 The Spiritual Liberation of Music, Dance, and Ritual : Verbal-versus Non-verbal Communication in J. M. Coetzee's 'Foe' Nigel H. Foxcroft , 2015 single work criticism
— Appears in: Commonwealth Essays and Studies , Autumn vol. 38 no. 1 2015; (p. 11-20)
' In exploring the power and diverse means of communication reflected in J. M. Coetzee's Foe (1986), this article considers the nature, musicality, and limitations of language - both written and oral. It investigates the sway of non-verbal communication, reflected through the spiritually liberating forms of story-making, music, dance, and ritual. Dexterity in Afro-American dances (Capoeira, Candombl , and Calypso) is contemplated with regard to Foe's Bahian setting and Friday's performing abilities.' (Publication abstract)
